Oh..I love Essex. We go there all the time. I have friends who live up that way, in Essex, Ipswich, and Hamilton. I love antiquing there and eating at Woodman's also :) I live in Lynn.
My dh made this grow out pen for my 5- 5 week old chicks (2 SS, 2 BA, 1 BO) while they wait for their coop to be built. It was made out of all things he had with the exception of the chicken wire and pvc. It has two levels, connected by a bi-level ramp.
If your want some specs:
He made it out...
Any advice on how big to make mine? I will be getting 5 chicks and 1 4 week old pullet. But I plan on giving 3of the chicks away. Ending up with 3 pullets. They'll have to live in it for a couple of months while my yard is leveled and the coop gets built. I'm going to keep the grow pen on my sun...
